Whether I can create my own thumbnails in embed video website

Nov 18, 2011

Q: I'm looking at your Video Lightbox features, but it's unclear to me whether I can
create my own thumbnails. As you well know, the automatic selection of thumbnails more
often than not gives a very unattractive thumbnail. I'd like to be able to create .png,
.gif, .jpg or .tif of my choice that I can then use as the thumbnails for my videos.
Is this possible with Video Lightbox?

A: Unfortunately you can not do directly in Video LightBox app,
but you can do it manually.

You should upload your own image on the server (e.g. YourImageName.jpg) and change path
to video thumbnail in VideoLightBox BODY section:

How do I automatically launch a video using Video LightBox as soon as the lightbox youtube jquery page opens without the user having to click on a thumbnail? Last video in my gallery doesn't play on those lightbox vimeo devices but does play on a mac/pc. "VideoLightBox" can not be opened because it is from unidentified developer. Would love to know a way to change that effect, thanks!

We have a youtube video popup SERIOUS problem... in the latest version of Android, in google's latest product Nexus 7, it totally does not work. Is their embed video html a way to make the thumbnail a text link instead, or does it have to be a thumbnail of the video? What am I doing wrong?

Hi! For example, iMovie wants to default to a html5 video player 960x540 size that is really good at balancing file size and resolution, but it does not play on my video light box iPhone or iPad at all. Supported codecs are "flv, h264, vp6f, vp6a"". Please help!

I'm looking into your slider, and was wondering if I can implement a video light box to open up when the html5 embed video banner is clicked on at one image, and when another image is clicked it should simply go to another page, like a regular link... Is it possible? We are attempting to place both a video and a photo gallery on the same page; the photo gallery works fine and comes up with the overlay, but the video now appears in a separate window. What needs to change to make this html5 lightbox example work.

Hi, I have Lightbox Ver. But you convert all video in Flash format? Clicking on it launches the popup video jquery window with a spinning wait icon, evidently looking for a jquery popup video video that isn't there. I thought since it is streaming via Vimeo it would work using Vimeo's converters.

We have an issue with a white box overlaying about half of the video only in how embed video in internet explorer, though is there anyway to fix this. I could either put the html video thumbnail password in the link description or even embed in the html. (Unlimited websites license) and I'm very pleased with it. So can I use this unlimited on all of my lightbox play video and my clients sites??
